Any advice on recovering items floating in the atmosphere

Well, I just did exactly that. This situation used to be a pain, and in fact I did not do that for a long time, because close to the planet canisters fly too fast and your ship loses too much speed with scoop deployed...

...except, this time I was in an engineered G5 DD Cobra, 194 m/s with scoop deployed. The canisters looked like they were stationary. In short: use a really fast ship!
